hi, i had a few k of fund that saved from angpau money since small and i never used these money instead saving it. Been putting the money in fd for 3 years. Recently came across this eGia and wondering should I move this fund in the eGia. My concern are:

1) I will definitely not using these money. But eGia is mean for flexible
2) eGia just ~0.4% higher (as for now) than the FD rate, but slightly riskier (unstable rate + no PIDM covered) than FD

Sifus, please advise notworthy.gif

Why not go for promo FDs? Definitely can get higher than eGIA-i since you won't be using the money. If you are going to use it then eGIA-i is useful.

currently only osbc running promotions in the market given 3.90%. Others still lower than eGia. Are the any other fd promotions going on that i didn't notice?

For the risk, I don't see much issue since it's Maybank.
